My experience: I got a master's degree from a pretty weak school about 10 years ago. There was rampant cheating on tests and I didn't learn that much. While I'm not sure it helped me land any jobs, I do think it did help me get a higher salary at a few places.

I suppose in that case, if the higher salaries justified the cost of the master's degree, then you got a good return on your investment.
